Russia
The Soviet Period and After
Woodford McClellan
This up-to-date history of Russia — from the cataclysmic events of 1917 to the uncertain, explosive present — is based on the latest findings of scholars from Russia and the West. The book reflects the author's own extensive research in many Russian archival collections during more than two dozen lengthy visits. Featuring a smooth, yet strong narrative that captures the excitement of Russian history, it avoids excessive concentration on today's events or politics. Focusing throughout on the history of the peoples of Russia — including the national minorities — and going beyond the often dry political and economic history, this book explores how the people live and have lived — including the nature of their aspirations and problems. For anyone interested in the Russian history and culture.
